"The ultimate beach look for 2013, this dishevelled wavy hair style will make you look like a natural beach goddess while working on your tan. The best beach looks are when you have the most natural looking hair with a lot of texture throughout as this gives the 'boho wave' an amazing natural wildness. This style works on anyone with bob length to longer hair."

How to recreate this look at home
1. Shampoo your and use a light moisturising conditioner. Towel-dry your hair by squeezing the ends. Avoid brushing the hair too much unless it is excessively knotty. Once 30% dry, apply one pump of Moroccan Oil through the ends to give it some nutrition and a natural glow.

2. Section the hair into five horizontal sections and spray Bumble & bumble Surf Spray evenly from the roots to the ends from a 20 cm distance. Repeat on each section throughout the head.

3. Blow dry the hair without a brush, tilt your head upside down to achieve as much volume as possible and scrunch the lengths with your hands, during drying. If you have a fringe I recommend blow drying this first with a round brush before drying the rest of your hair to set the shape. Once your hair is dry, tilt your head back to its natural position, shake lightly and choose your preferred place for your parting.

4. To create the waves, take random sections of hair (an inch in thickness) where you would like the movement. Bend the section of hair into a C shape starting a couple of inches from the roots and use the straighteners on this area for two-three seconds. Remove the straighteners and then bend the hair below in the opposite direction like a reversed C, effectively creating an S shape. Clamp the straighteners again for a further two-three seconds. Repeat until you reach the end of the hair and follow this method throughout the head until you are happy with the look. Leave the ends for that natural hippy chic look.

5. Once cooled, run your hands through the hair and shake. Finish off by applying a little Aveda Pure Abundance Hair Potion to your hands and spread through your palms lightly. Scrunch through your hair evenly to create more hold and texture to dishevel your boho waves. Remember this look has a natural wildness about it, embrace it!

Nicky Clarke's summer hair care tip
"Hair gets really dehydrated from direct sunlight and sea salt water. Make sure you use a good shampoo such as SP After-Sun Shampoo to instantly cleanse impurities and restore your hairs natural moisture levels. And use a deep moisturising treatment every other day like Nicky Clarke's Intense Moisture Mask."
